Hi. I am living in Doaktown, New Brunswick, Canada. I have been working on my family tree for a few years now. Doaktown was named after Robert Doak who came here from Ayrshire, Scotland. His brother is the on who I am descended from. Their father was also Robert, whose father was William, whose father was also William, whose father was Johne Doock who married Janet (or Jonet) Murdoch in 1667. If anyone has any information at all about any Doaks that are connected to these or may be, please let me know. Thanks.
Matthew Doak

P.S. If anyone wants a copy of my family tree as it is so far, please email me as well.

Hello Matthew!

I am also an ancestor of Robert Doak and actually was just in Doaktown a few weeks ago to go visit the town for the first time! I'm not sure if you still live there though? My great grandmother was Agnes "Bessie" Doak but since she and my grandmother have passed away, I don't know any more details about the lineage. It would be great to get some more information if you have it! My email address is hwestby@lakeheadu.ca

Hoping to hear back!
Hannah

Hi Hannah
I'm one of the line descended from John Doak, who was in PA, VA, & NC in the 1700s
We think the family spent some time in Ulster, and Ayrshire before that
What do you have for a date of immigration to Canada, and from where ?
